We haved stayed at Lagunamar 5 times and each visit has been better than the last. I have travelled to many places around the world and this one is at the top of my list. The entire property is always immaculate. The units have unbelievable views of the ocean and the fantastic infinity pool. The staff is fantastic, friendly and always helpful. This is the only place where many of the staff remember our names and are happy to see us. To quote my grandson who was five on our first visit, "this place is paradise" .

This was our 3rd visit to the Westin Lagunamar in the last 18 months. We love it and given the chance to get away again over Thanksgiving we jumped at the chance to return. We were not disappointed. I have travelled around the world and love to come back here again and again. The people are fantastic and the property is beyond clean and beautiful. The units have everything you need and the views are amazing. We arrived around 1:00 and were able to get into our room early. Wendy at the front desk was wonderful and gave us an amazing room in building 14 that was right on the beach. It was hard to leave the balcony, with such a great view and a wonderful breeze. We slept with the door open each night as we could hear the surf. The food was again great and the wait staff is so wonderful, and it is great to see familiar faces from our previous trips. I read reviews and cannot understand how anyone can not love this place. The Wi-Fi is spotty...but please, you are on vacation, put the devices down and enjoy Mexico. I cannot wait to return again and again.

Thank you very much for your review.On behalf of the entire staff, thank you for choosing Westin Lagunamar once again for visiting to Cancun. We are really pleased to see that you had a great time with us and that you enjoyed our services and facilities; we can assure you, your comments will be shared with all the team.

Once again, we thank you for sharing your experience and we cannot wait to welcome you back very soon!!

Regards,

Stayed there Nov. 24 thru Dec. 1. We were on the 3rd floor in building 9. Great views. Room was very nice. The limited kitchen was great for making breakfast and lunch. Restaurants and bars were fairly expensive. We took an ice chest and purchased alcohol and beer outside the resort (isla mall has a couple of places and its right across the street). Made alot of margarita's, blender in room. Went across the street one day and got tacos, guacamole, and pico for lunch and brought it back to the beach. Probably the best lunch we had all week. Beach is very nice and they try to keep it as clean as possible. Some vacationers really make it rough. Fish Fritanga is a seafood restaurant just a short walk south. Great food ($10-$15). Highly recommend. Hooters is across the street for that can't miss game. They will find any game you want. Alot of TV's. If you're looking for something to do, take the city bus to playa torguga and catch the ferry to isla mujeras. walk down the playa norte (north beach). the restaurants let you use their chairs and umbrellas if you're drinking and eating. great day. SOAP BOX: smokers, please don't throw your cigarette butts on the beach. all of the beaches in the area are beautiful. please quit trashing them with cigarette butts.

Stayed in studio which is great for a couple. In most Most timeshare places, the studio or lockoff side has a hotel type kitchenette (microwave , coffee maker, small fridge, bar sink period) and two double beds, not here. They have a queen bed, a kitchen with a two burner stove top, small fridge with ice maker, small dischwasher, bar sink, microwave, coffee maker, etc and even a washer and dryer. Great for a couple. there is also a fold out couch but this would be tight and no privacy for more than two people so maybe a very young child would be OK. Balcony is the same length as the one on the master suite side (the master is deeper to allow for 4 chairs) not as big as at the Royal resorts balconies but adequate for two. This set up is perfect for us since we like to eat a liesurely breakfast in, than have the option for lunch out or in the room, then we splurge on dining out in the evenings and there are some great places to eat in Cancun. As long as you are three floors or higher you shuld have a nice pool and ocean view.

I want to clearly provide full disclosure. I usually do not stay (nor aspire to stay) at big chains, but I had a very heavily discounted 5 night stay offer that my wife thought was worthwhile.

So, for a big chain property, the Westin was indeed a terrific property. The grounds were immaculate, the infinity pools strategically placed and the food/drinks at the pool were the normal expensive priced and good tasting. Great beach frontage.

The property is all-suite, and the rooms are really high end. Zero complaints! Located right across the street from a new mall (another one of my normal not-go-to places!!), but for a mall it was actually very interesting layout and some fun and funky stores.

If you are a beach resort kind of traveler, you won't be disappointed.

Room Tip: 200 section rooms are closest to beach.

We just stayed from Dec. 2-9 2012 it was wonderful when asked if we wanted a presentation for timeshare we said no and that was the last we heard of it no pressure what a refreshment. Like most places in Cancun the staff remembered our name and what we liked to drink. The food was great the place very clean. I would recomend this place to everyone. Now I am off the the Villa Del Palmar

Room Tip: All rooms have a great view never did the spa

WE are staying at the Westin Lagunamar right now and are happy with the unit, pools and the beach. Most reviews are fairly accurate that the wifi is poor and the pools are cool (not cold). Our biggest concern was the food at Oceana last night. It was an Italian buffet that was played up quite nicely by the concierge. The food was bland, the meat was poor quality/dried out and the lasagna tasted like Chef Boy R Dee! The best food item was the ceasar dressing and the bread served with dipping oil. Not anywhere worth the $35 pp and $18 for kids. We intended on eating out at the restaurants a few times this week but instead did a full grocery shop at the Superama. If I want bland pasta and sauce from a can, I can do it myself in my suite for about $5.

Tip: The concierge will give you a ticket for a cab to/from Superama and the cab driver will actually wait for you to shop. It cost 300 pesos.

Room Tip: The higher the better, but everything faces the ocean.
